| Riding
in the lap of luxury - sums up your experience
aboard a TRV Cruiser. The 550H1 engine with
Electronic Power Steering (EPS) leads the
charge as one of the hottest Cruiser models
for 2012.
Arctic Cat’s Variable Assist EPS
allows steering assistance to the ATV before
it even starts to move at idle. This is
a huge benefit to conserving the riders
input energy when in 4wd, and especially
when the differential lock is engaged. Arctic
Cat EPS will reduce the torque necessary
to steer the ATV when changing direction
with loaded racks or navigating tough obstacles
like rocks, deep mud or logs.
The variable assist system is driven by
an electronic control unit (ECU) that measures
steering input force versus tire resistance
and vehicle speed then provides appropriate
assist to the steering column through an
electric motor. The Arctic Cat power steering
ECU program is designed to maintain a light
steering input effort, but maintains enough
feel so you have a better understanding
of what the tire contact patch is doing
in relation to the terrain. Arctic Cat EPS
will keep the rider and the ATV connected
which is lost on competitive units after
sustained riding.
The TRV Cruiser models go a step further
into the lap of two-rider luxury. Standard
features like, heated driver and passenger
handgrips, locking travel case, windshield
with handlebar-mounted mirrors, aluminum
wheels and a Warn winch all make this the
high end tworider ATV to cruise on. The
TRV platform has numerous features to ease
riding convenience.
Chief among them is a two-up seat with
cushioned seat back for legal trail riding.
Passengers will appreciate integrated footrests
for smooth and secure footing The double
A-arm front suspension and fully independent
rear suspension (both with five-position
spring preload adjustment) deliver 10 inches
of travel and keep the ride firmly planted
and comfortable. And 10 inches of ground
clearance helps you clear nearly all trail
obstacles.
An all-encompassed electronic 2WD/4WD/Differential
Lock switch on the right hand control makes
going in/out of 4WD or Diff Lock an easy
process.
